Updated | By Nushera Soodyal
The KZN Police commissioner says they've found drugs under the bodies of the seven men who were found shot execution style at a homestead in KwaMakhutha, south of Durban.
25 Ecstacy tablets and 25 whoonga straws were found.
Commissioner Khombinkosi Jula said this gave the police an indication that the abandoned house was used as a place where they could come and smoke or be involved in criminal activity.
"Unfortunately is does create a recipe for disaster, these houses that are abandoned - nobody takes responsibility for them."
"But, whatever could be the reason why so many lives have been lost, we want to condemn it."
